When i play lo-mac for ay 2 mins into a flight the controls mess up the plane goes to full pitch up or down. tried re-calibrating the joystick and re-instaling lo-mac with no joy. thinks its a problem with lo-mac as my other flight sims are ok. Any help with this would be great as i just got a new graphics card to run this games and was having great fun until this bug popped up thanks.

check for "maintain height" togled on ("h" by default). I had a similar issue and thought it was a bug. I accidentaly pressed "h" so my poor F-15 tried to mantain it's height and that's why you pitch all the time no control with only a slight movement of the stick. Hope It helps.

My stick was doing the same thing, and I have a CH products fighter stick, throttle, and rudderpedals combo, Anyway, somehow the alt hold function was enabling itself and making the game completely unplayable, even when the game would start in the air. All I have to do to fix it is press the "H" key and it solves the problem immediately. Just thought I would let others know who may be having the same problem, so they dont pull out all their hair like I did after I tried everything else, including uninstalling and reinastalling both the game and the stick. But this means there is another bug in the game that is causing this to happen. Bummer.
